...Yes. These are the things I love.

I missed dinner tonight to attend a wake for someone I knew from my old life. The life of violence and heartache that I lived before, when I started this blog. It was sad and yet, I have this joy that I didn't have then, all those years ago...

So tonight I went to an event with my new love, someone that loves animals rather than murders them... Someone that makes me feel warm and happy and safe rather than makes me go through the hell that I went through before.... (yet...some days...can't help thinking about).

Anyway, we bought the coolest art ever tonight... I think of it as "disco insect on acid." I'm rather poor, too...and we gave money to a worthy fucking cause. I'm in love. I'm still, tentatively, disgustingly happy. I wish I could hug and kiss more people than I have to hug and kiss tonight...

But now, I'm sitting in my sweetie's chair in drawers and undies...

He's walking my pups. We'll have a late dinner before meeting our friends...

We have a cool new painting...

I love EVERYTHING right now....

I also feel pretty hot. What's that about?

Yay-ness...

And you know what? My new love will never end things violently, bloodily, angrily. He'll hold me and love me forever. What more could I ever ask for? Seriously?
